The River

It was December, us at the river You were so strong for so long, but then You had to let go, leaving my hands so cold And the current took you drifting off the shore "Will time catch up to us?" you said I think about the names, not every story the same But there comes a day where we'll meet at the river I can't force myself to face, 'cause I know that there's a day Where we can't escape the fate of the river We thought we'd be able to leave our paintings on the wall When we hung them thought we would never take them down If only I'd known that one day we'd lose control I would have put up a better fight, now it's a line I can't rewrite "Do you think this is it? Do we run?" I said I think about the names, not every story the same But there comes a day where we'll meet at the river I can't force myself to face, 'cause I know that there's a day Where we can't escape the fate of the river When we meet at the riverbed I will do anything I can To hold on a little longer If we had a minute longer When we meet at the riverbed I'll take you by the hand We'll run into the water Wish I had a second longer I think about the names, not every story the same But there comes a day where we'll meet at the river I think about the names, not every story the same But there comes a day where we'll meet at the river I can't force myself to face, 'cause I know that there's a day Where we can't escape the fate of the river Let's stay in today 'Cause this moment won't linger Now we wait for the day Where we meet at the river
